Hi Everyone & welcome to another week of CASEing the Catty. This week we are casing my very favourite section in the holiday catalgoue, the Merry Little Christmas section from pages 10-19.

I have chosen to make 3 cards from this section as I haven't joined in the fun for such a long time! My 1st card I have chosen to case is the card on the string that nice lady is holding .... well I presume she is nice!

This card has a shaker element to it however, I was after a quick card that incorporated all the elements of the Carols Of Christmas bundle, minus the shaker part.

Here is my card:

I have used the Card Front Builder framelits to make a nice little frame & then the Merry Little Christmas DSP as a background for my little black deer. I have also cut out some trees using the spotty DSP too. Now I have to admit, I am not a huge fan of green & black for Christmas but it is growing on me & it took everything in me not to add lots of red!

For my second card, this little box took my fancy. I was too lazy to make this box but I did take inspiration from it to make a card.

Here is my inspired card.

Instead of using the bauble which was just too chunky for my card, I used some large pearls & the holly punch to add holly instead of the sprigs. It just goes to show that you don't have to have everything in the catalogue to case something!

While I was playing with this fun suite, I figured I may as well make another card using the Everyday Label punch & the Merry Little Labels stamp set.

I had a lot of fun creating again & hope to be back in the swing of joining in the fun CASEing the Catty challenges in the future.

Next on the hop is the lovely Julia, where I am sure you will find even more to inspire you.

It's time again for another Colour INKspiration blog hop. Today we are working with some lovely earthy colours. I have to admit I have never used these colours together. I haven't used Tip Top Taupe or Delightful Dijon in ages so I am giving them one last hurrah before they leave us to make way for 5 new In Colours.

Here's the inspiration photo:

What comes to mind when you see these colours together? I had an aha moment & decided to use my Best Birds bundle. Surprisingly I have never inked up this stamp set, even with a blog called the Speckled Sparrow! I have to say after making a few cards today with it I really love it.

Here is my card.

Best Birds Speckled Sparrow Card

So, today as you can see, I have made a card for ME! It's an interesting concept isn't it, making a card for yourself. What would you make yourself? Have I totally lost the plot?

As you can see this card is a little different. It has an acetate panel so you can see the beautiful grassy sunrise or is it a sunset? I just love that Serene Scenery DSP. The Delightful Dijon spots on the front are also from that DSP pack.

Acetate Panel Best Birds

I have added a little oval & scallop background for the sentiment. I chose this one for me however, it would make a nice card for any occasion. I stamped my sparrow in Early Espresso onto watercolour paper & let it sit for a little while. I then coloured the bird in using Soft Suede, Delightful Dijon & Tip Top Taupe with an Aqua Painter. I added a smidge of Garden Green for the leaves & a piece of Linen Thread.

Here is the inside of the card. I left a vanilla panel to the left of the card to write a little note. I just might send it on to someone else one of these days. After making this card, I am really sad to see these colours retire!

During the week I made another card using all carrying over items plus a little bit of a sneak peek NEW stamp set & punch, using the same bird.

I have used the new In Colour Berry Burst ink for the little bird's belly along with Cherry Cobbler. The sentiment is from Hang Your Stocking stamp set & the lovely new punch & stamp set sneak peek is a new bundle coming soon called Label Me Pretty.

Next on the hop is Denita with her lovely project. Click the next blog button to head on over to her blog & continue the hop.
